    Well if you have cash or your own finance set up, it's much easier to make that offer and get what you want VS having to go through their finance process spending hrs dealing with that hassle. I know commercial truck financing is much more involved than regular vehicle finance, so I'm sure only complicates the process.

    And line three spawned instantly in Eastern Oklahoma already. Arkansas media insists this is the one we all need to watch. So we will.

    I understand Jackson MS NWS is offline or otherwise too occupied with tornados in the area. Chasers show that damage is ongoing.

    Hopefully I kept everything in order. Its a challenge to post when moving large files off internet. Something like 30 gigabyte over the next 10 hours or so.

    To me, if you have the liquidity and say 30k reserve. Buy it outright. If you finance the insurance will be higher than if you own. Also with financing if you accidentaly skip payments you may find when you return to pick up the truck after service? It may have been reposessed for your tardiness.

    Also if your buying it? Go to the dealer and see what they are willing to do for you with a cash sale. They may have packages that could be applied over their current stock. Never know until you ask.

    Ok. So what does any of that have to do with the sale price of the truck?

    Like I said. Talk to them. Sales may know of packages or pricing for cash buyers
